Why Watch This

Venkat Prabhu takes his kinetic, ensemble‑driven style to a gritty legal thriller, turning a missing‑child case into a pulse‑pounding cat‑and‑mouse chase. The film’s razor‑sharp editing and claustrophobic courtroom set‑pieces keep you guessing until the final verdict.

The CinePearl Take

Vijay Sethupathi steals the spotlight as a relentless prosecutor whose moral ambiguity fuels the film’s central conflict. Prabhu’s pacing is relentless—each act ends on a cliffhanger that propels the story forward. Thematically, Custody probes how far a parent will go when the law becomes an adversary, delivering a surprisingly emotional core beneath the thriller veneer.
